Clinical, phenotypic and genetic landscape of case reports with genetically proven inherited disorders of vitamin B 12 metabolism: A meta-analysis. Cell Rep Med 2022; 3:100670. [PMID: 35764087 PMCID: PMC9381384 DOI: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2022.100670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2021] [Revised: 11/22/2021] [Accepted: 06/02/2022] [Indexed: 10/31/2022]
Abstract
Inherited disorders of B12 metabolism produce a broad spectrum of manifestations, with limited knowledge of the influence of age and the function of related genes. We report a meta-analysis on 824 patients with a genetically proven diagnosis of an inherited disorder of vitamin B12 metabolism. Gene clusters and age categories are associated with patients' manifestations. The "cytoplasmic transport" cluster is associated with neurological and ophthalmological manifestations, the "mitochondrion" cluster with hypotonia, acute metabolic decompensation, and death, and the "B12 availability" and "remethylation" clusters with anemia and cytopenia. Hypotonia, EEG abnormalities, nystagmus, and strabismus are predominant in the younger patients, while neurological manifestations, such as walking difficulties, peripheral neuropathy, pyramidal syndrome, cerebral atrophy, psychiatric disorders, and thromboembolic manifestations, are predominant in the older patients. These results should prompt systematic checking of markers of vitamin B12 status, including homocysteine and methylmalonic acid, when usual causes of these manifestations are discarded in adult patients.

Exome sequencing in individuals with cardiovascular laterality defects identifies potential candidate genes. Eur J Hum Genet 2022; 30:946-954. [PMID: 35474353 PMCID: PMC9349204 DOI: 10.1038/s41431-022-01100-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/17/2021] [Revised: 02/26/2022] [Accepted: 04/04/2022] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
The birth prevalence of laterality defects is about 1.1/10,000 comprising different phenotypes ranging from situs inversus totalis to heterotaxy, mostly associated with complex congenital heart defects (CHD) and situs abnormalities such as intestinal malrotation, biliary atresia, asplenia, or polysplenia. A proportion of laterality defects arise in the context of primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) accompanied by respiratory symptoms or infertility. In this study, exome sequencing (ES) was performed in 14 case-parent trios/quattros with clinical exclusion of PCD prior to analysis. Moreover, all cases and parents underwent detailed clinical phenotyping including physical examination, echocardiography by a skilled paediatric cardiologist and abdominal ultrasound examinations not to miss mildly affected individuals. Subsequent survey of the exome data comprised filtering for monoallelic de novo, rare biallelic, and X-linked recessive variants. In two families, rare variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PKD1L1 and ZIC3 were identified. Both genes have been associated with laterality defects. In two of the remaining families, biallelic variants in LMBRD1 and DNAH17, respectively, were prioritized. In another family, an ultra-rare de novo variant in WDR47 was found. Extensive exome survey of 2,109 single exomes of individuals with situs inversus totalis, heterotaxy, or isolated CHD identified two individuals with novel monoallelic variants in WDR47, but no further individuals with biallelic variants in DNAH17 or LMBRD1. Overall, ES of 14 case-parent trios/quattros with cardiovascular laterality defects identified rare VUS in two families in known disease-associated genes PKD1L1 and ZIC3 and suggests DNAH17, LMBRD1, and WDR47 as potential genes involved in laterality defects.

Abstract
Cobalamin (vitamin B12) is required for activity of the enzymes methylmalonyl-CoA mutase and methionine synthase in human cells. Inborn errors affecting cobalamin uptake or metabolism are characterized by accumulation of the substrates for these enzymes, methylmalonic acid and homocysteine, in blood and urine. Inborn errors affecting synthesis of the adenosylcobalamin coenzyme required by methylmalonyl-CoA mutase (cblA and cblB) result in isolated methylmalonic aciduria; inborn errors affecting synthesis of the methylcobalamin coenzyme required by methionine synthase (cblE and cblG) result in isolated homocystinuria. Combined methylmalonic aciduria and homocystinuria is seen in patients with impaired intestinal cobalamin absorption (intrinsic factor deficiency, Imerslund-Gräsbeck syndrome) and with defects affecting synthesis of both cobalamin coenzymes (cblC, cblD, cblF and cblJ). A series of disorders caused by pathogenic variant mutations affecting gene regulators (transcription factors) of the MMACHC gene have recently been described (HCFC1 [cblX disorder] and deficiencies of THAP11, and ZNF143 [the cblK disorder]).

Abstract
Inherited disorders of cobalamin (cbl) metabolism (cblA-J) result in accumulation of methylmalonic acid (MMA) and/or homocystinuria (HCU). Clinical presentation includes ophthalmological manifestations related to retina, optic nerve and posterior visual alterations, mainly reported in cblC and sporadically in other cbl inborn errors.We searched MEDLINE EMBASE and Cochrane Library, and analyzed articles reporting ocular manifestations in cbl inborn errors. Out of 166 studies a total of 52 studies reporting 163 cbl and 24 mut cases were included. Ocular manifestations were found in all cbl defects except for cblB and cblD-MMA; cblC was the most frequent disorder affecting 137 (84.0%) patients. The c.271dupA was the most common pathogenic variant, accounting for 70/105 (66.7%) cases. One hundred and thirty-seven out of 154 (88.9%) patients presented with early-onset disease (0-12 months). Nystagmus and strabismus were observed in all groups with the exception of MMA patients while maculopathy and peripheral retinal degeneration were almost exclusively found in MMA-HCU patients. Optic nerve damage ranging from mild temporal disc pallor to complete atrophy was prevalent in MMA-HCU.and MMA groups. Nystagmus was frequent in early-onset patients. Retinal and macular degeneration worsened despite early treatment and stabilized systemic function in these patients. The functional prognosis remains poor with final visual acuity < 20/200 in 55.6% (25/45) of cases. In conclusion, the spectrum of eye disease in Cbl patients depends on metabolic severity and age of onset. The development of visual manifestations over time despite early metabolic treatment point out the need for specific innovative therapies.

Abstract
Disorders caused by defects in lysosomal membrane transporters form a distinct subgroup of lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs). To date, defects in only 10 lysosomal membrane transporters have been associated with inherited disorders. The clinical presentations of these diseases resemble the phenotypes of other LSDs; they are heterogeneous and often present in children with neurodegenerative manifestations. However, for pathomechanistic and therapeutic studies, lysosomal membrane transport defects should be distinguished from LSDs caused by defective hydrolytic enzymes. The involved proteins differ in function, localization, and lysosomal targeting, and the diseases themselves differ in their stored material and therapeutic approaches. We provide an overview of the small group of disorders of lysosomal membrane transporters, emphasizing discovery, pathomechanism, clinical features, diagnostic methods and therapeutic aspects. We discuss common aspects of lysosomal membrane transporter defects that can provide the basis for preclinical research into these disorders.
